The brains behind the world’s first-ever sperm race are spilling the tea to TMZ -- disclosing their donors are on one wild ride getting prepared for the big race day.

The tech teen dream team’s swimming in strategy -- giving us every juicy detail of the donors’ prep, from tailor-made vitamins to pineapple-juice chugging. This isn’t a half-baked stunt -- it’s a well-seeded plan.

The disturbing allegations come from five officers from the North Bergen Police Department, who submitted legal complaints this month -- which TMZ obtained -- to prepare to sue police chief Robert Farley for discrimination, harassment, using racial slurs, retaliation, sexual misconduct, and violation of civil rights.
The legal complaints obtained by TMZ also accuse Farley of exposing himself to the entire office while making inappropriate comments such as, "Hey, look, it's bigger than you thought, right?"

Many of these drones were also hobbyists, recreational, and private individuals that enjoy flying drones. In time, it got worse due to curiosity. This was not the enemy."

Can this really be happening without our government’s knowledge. I don’t think so! Let the public know, and now. Otherwise, shoot them down!!!"
